Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti believes that Jude Bellingham is currently the "best player in the world".

The Italian boss shifted Bellingham's position and gave him an advanced role in midfield following his arrival in the summer from Borussia Dortmund.

He said ahead of Real Madrid's Copa del Rey tie with Arandina, as quoted by Tribal Football: "Jude is doing very well."

"His adaptation has been very good to our club. New culture and new language. He is the best in the world."

The England international managed to score 17 goals and provided five assists in 22 appearances for Los Blancos so far this season.
